Portugal

Your overall comments on the trip and the travel company:

We had a wonderful time in Lisbon and Madeira, Portugal. Our travel agent planned everything, including the guides, tours, and transportation from airports to hotels.

From a cooking class to beautiful sites in Portugal, the guides were fantastic with their knowledge of history in Lisbon and Madeira.

I definitely will use our travel agency and Zicasso to plan future trips abroad. I would recommend both agencies to my friends!

What were the most enjoyable or memorable parts of your trip?

The fireworks in Madeira had to be my favorite part of the trip. Also, visiting the vineyards and wine tastings.

The tuk-tuk ride in Lisbon the first day we arrived.

If you could take your trip again, what would you do differently?

I would suggest not renting a car. Taxis are the way to get around in Portugal. We had a rental car and it was not used, other than to drive from and to the airport.
